Ooh…ooh.ooh
C#m…B….A

There’s a rock in the road
and a ditch on the side
C#m…………………..B…………...A……………..
And a steep hill that must be
climbed
……….B……………..A………..E…….
It’s a big heavy load and it
measures too wide
C#m……………B……………A………………..
And a destination that’s hard
to find
……..C#m….B…………..A…….B….
But I will get over I’ll make
it there
B…A..B…….E….A…B……..C#m
I’ll climb up that mountain
and breathe heaven’s air
E…………………..B…………….C#m…………….B
I will get over
A..B……E
SAME CHORDS AGAIN
There’s a stop sign ahead and
it’s slippery when wet
And a detour at every turn
There’s a narrowing bridge
and a long threatening ridge
And a big old landslide that
bars return
But I will get over I’ll make
it there
There’s just no getting round
it this trouble I bear
I will get over
Ooh ooh ooh
C#m..B..A
C#m..B..A
C#m..B..A
C#m..B..A
There’s a wreck on the right
and it’s getting on night
And my headlights they won’t
turn on
Ah my brakes have been worn
and the bumpers been torn
And my pride and patience are
all but gone
But I will get over I’ll make
it there
Till that sweet day I find it
and know that I’m there
I will get over I will get
over
